WEBINAR: Birds & Butterflies in Your Backyard

The TurfMutt Foundation recently sponsored a kid-friendly webinar hosted by the Wildlife Habitat Council on birds and butterflies in your backyard. This webinar is perfect for parents and kids to watch together!

The webinar is now available for viewing here.

Your backyard can be home to all sorts of animals like birds and butterflies. Watch the webinar to find out why native plants are so good for nature. It will also touch on easy things that you can do at home to make a difference.

It’s just one of the many ways that the TurfMutt Foundation is supporting at-home learning. The Foundation also offers free, online, do-at-home lesson plans. The environmental education program resources, based on STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) principles, teach kids about the benefits of taking care of and spending time in nature. The lessons include outdoor-themed activity sheets for kids in grades K-8. They give children the prompts they need to have fun learning about and exploring the nature and science in their own backyards.
